Who is this for?

Why to attend this workshop

Too often, entrepreneurs are poorly advised at the point at which a company is formed, creating issues that are time consuming and costly to unravel later.  A poorly planned corporate structure can:

  • Be difficult to adapt to changing needs.

  • Can fuel risk for investors.

  • ·Increase tax liability.

  • Fail to protect founders’ long term interests

Ultimately, creating barriers that make it harder for founders and entrepreneurs to achieve the long-term objectives they set out with. 

However, if planned appropriately, creating a future proofed and flexible corporate structure can be straightforward and cost efficient if you consider.

✔️ Incorporation: Importance of Corporate, Company structure and documentation
